Chapter 278: Escape from the City of True Children (I)
Bai Muyun didn't answer him, but said, "Think of another place!" With that, she pressed her hand and the green bead in her hand against his back.
Shen Qingli's body stiffened slightly. Immediately, a beautiful scenery appeared in Bai Muyun's mind. It is lush and green, with a clear spring not far away. Strange to say, the feeling of this picture is obviously spring, but the spring water is constantly steaming hot.
Could it be that this is a hot spring?
Bai Muyun grew up in the Southern Regions and had never seen hot springs, but had only read about them. There are many theories about the reasons for the formation of hot springs, but the most mentioned is the cause of divine power. But now that Bai Muyun thinks about it, it should be the gathering guide of the power of fire, right?
Suddenly, a small but agile black beast rushed to the fountain from a distance and plunged into it. A young man followed in hot pursuit, then rushed inward. Bai Muyun recognized it at a glance, this young man was Shen Qingli.
But he looked very different then than now, he was thinner, fairer, without any scars on his face, and his hair was very smooth, and he didn't have the worldly feeling he has now.
However, one beast and one person submerged in the spring water one after another, and did not come out for a long time. No matter how good the water is, it is impossible to endure nearly half an hour!
Bai Muyun was thinking about it, and the little black beast showed its head. I saw him struggle with great difficulty towards the fountain, and a handful of long black hair was tightly held in its mouth. After it came ashore exhausted, Shen Qingli's figure was also dragged out by it.
"Original...... That's how you drank the spring together. Bai Muyun couldn't help but smile, "It looks like we have to go to this place." ”
"Why?" Shen Qingli watched her withdraw her hand and reminded. "Put it away. I can't hold it all the time. ”
Hearing this, Bai Muyun solemnly put the green bead back into the box, and then put it back in the storage bag: "I and two other friends also have a situation between you and it. Until something happened, we had been communicating in the ordinary way. So, I want to figure it out. What happened to me after I fell unconscious. And the message you just gave me gives me hope. Perhaps this bead is the key to solving the mystery. ”
"What's the origin of the person who gave you this?"
"I don't know. They never mentioned, not even any clues. However, "Bai Muyun suddenly decided on one thing. "Have you seen their green robes?"
"Green?" Shen Qingli's eyes narrowed slightly, "When I entered the city, I saw a few people wearing green shirts, but the kind that was very elegant, embroidered with a moire crane picture?" ”
"Not bad." Bai Muyun nodded, "Except for this clue, I don't know at all. The white-haired old man seemed to be expecting something from me. will give this thing to me. ”
"And what did you do when you entered the house?" Shen Qingli had never seen that kind of uniform coat that was very memorable, and he was even more aware of the unkind look that one of them cast on Bai Muyun when he just entered the city.
"Drink tea, play chess." Bai Muyun decided to tell Shen Qingli about this matter without concealing it, "Moreover, there are many strange things about this tea and this chess. "Present. She told Shen Qingli about the situation little by little.
And when she said that she was pushed out of the room by an invisible force, and then went in but there was no one, Shen Qingli's expression had completely fallen into extreme shock.
He pondered for a moment before he said, "This will allow objects to appear and disappear out of thin air, and it can also push a contemplative person through the wall and disappear in an instant...... How did it make me feel like I had seen an immortal. It's not possible, though. Presumably, the old man you saw must be an Immortal Venerable who had reached the peak of the twelfth layer of subtlety. And from the analysis of the details he described, he gave you this thing, but he intended to take you as a disciple. Yes, if he was about to ascend at any time, shouldn't he recruit the disciples he was most satisfied with? ”
"It can't be!" The more Bai Muyun listened, the more confused he became. "He's very interested in me, but it's still too far away to say that he has an apprentice. Those people were all his disciples, and all of them were young and above the level of cultivation. What do I have for him? ”
"Immortal Venerable level people, but can we figure it out?" Shen Qingli grinned, "This should be a good fate." Maybe you'll really join some terrorist forces in the future. Don't forget to carry me at that time. ”
"Nonsense!" Bai Muyun shouted displeasedly, "I will never vote for others again!" I can only have one Master in this life! His grace. I can't pay it back in my life! ”
Shen Qingli wanted to tease, but it can be seen that she reacted like this, and she became very serious at the moment: "Then it seems that you can't answer my question either." ”
Bai Muyun knew what he was referring to, shook his head and said, "If Brother Shen still sees the conditions set by my senior sister and Uncle Fan, then send me to Xuanhuang City." Yun'er was also very confused about this. ”
"If I don't look down on their conditions," Shen Qingli let go of the little beast, stood up, walked to Bai Muyun's side, patted her on the shoulder condescendingly and said, "Then I, Shen Qingli, will definitely send you to Xuanhuang City." That was my initial commitment. ”
Looking at the surprise in Bai Muyun's eyes, Shen Qingli stretched: "Don't look at me like that, I'm not a gentleman." It just so happens that I have something to do with Xuanhuang City, you know. As long as you don't cause me any trouble. ”
For the first time, Bai Muyun looked at Shen Qingli in the sunshine without rejection, worry, and vigilance.
Suddenly, there was a scream outside, and then Shen Qingli's face changed, and he pulled Bai Muyun to the courtyard and looked at the sky.
At this time, the sky was already bright, and although it was still cloudy, many black figures were already suspended in the air. After the two of them lightly jumped onto the roof, they saw that more figures were gathering into the sky from all directions in the city.
"Let's go, go to the restaurant." Shen Qingli and Bai Muyun walked straight to the restaurant where they had a "hangover" last night.
"You drank so much yesterday, and you'll be fine today?" Bai Muyun kindly reminded him.
Unexpectedly, in exchange for his disdain: "When will you kid be like a gentleman, drink a few pots and show me!" If the cultivators are all like ordinary people, they will sleep completely after two sips, and they will also cultivate a fart! ”
knew that he was talking to the people next to him, but Bai Muyun couldn't help but give him a big roll of his eyes, and muttered in his mouth: "If you have something to say, just say it, why do you keep talking about me!" ”
"Hahaha!" Shen Qingli suddenly grabbed her shoulder, "You invite me to a drink another day, as long as you can get drunk, I won't joke with you anymore!" ”
Bai Muyun pushed him away violently, and said with an indignant face: "When Fairy Shi Yao comes back, she will definitely be asked to uphold justice!" ”
More and more people gathered at the restaurant, and when they entered, there were still a few empty seats.
"Two guest officers, please." A voice rang out immediately.
Bai Muyun glanced around, didn't find the little second brother before, and asked a little strangely, "That brother rested last night today?" ”
"Yes, yes!" The little second hurriedly bowed his head, led them to the empty seats, and left in a hurry after asking what to do.
There were at least sixty or seventy people sitting in the huge restaurant, but it was surprisingly quiet, as if they were all drinking tea and eating breakfast tacitly, and no one cared about the things outside.
It wasn't until the arrival of a person that this weirdness was broken.
"Brother Kuishun! It's such a coincidence, I just finished drinking it last night, and I'll see you again today! The Darkman who had sent them back spoke in a very cordial voice, and went straight from the door to their table.
"Haha, Brother Hades, please sit down. I drank too much yesterday, what a gaffe! Shen Qingli replied pretentiously, "I didn't expect it to be so lively here at breakfast time." ”
Bai Muyun noticed that almost none of the other guests looked back at the two of them, which aroused her great interest. Are they all meditating here?
A flash of thought flashed in her mind, and she suddenly thought of a possibility!
She looked around closely, and everyone's lips seemed to tremble slightly, but they didn't mean to speak. She understood that everyone was here to communicate and talk, and she should have used spells to block it outside each table, so she couldn't hear anything at all. But why do they do it?
Isn't it more convenient to stay in your own place than to come here in full view?
However, the next moment, she found that the Stygian took out a piece of yellow paper from her bosom, on which was written an unintelligible word. But this word must be a spell! Bai Muyun is quite sure of this.
I saw that after this piece of paper was placed on the table, it was suddenly turned into ashes by the power of fire emitted by the hands of the Immortal Method.
At the same time, Bai Muyun only felt like water ripples in front of him, and in an instant, it seemed as if there were only three of them left in the world.
"Brother Kuishun, forgive me for taking the liberty of being presumptuous, but what happened this morning is really strange." Hadesko said apologetically.
It turned out that this was really a forbidden technique, but unlike what he had known before in Shangqing Mountain, this was achieved with a spell. It seems that on the Copper Flame Continent, the level of the "curse" is much higher than that of Jin Feng.
"It's okay, if you have something to say, please say it directly." Shen Qing didn't stop it before leaving, but also to find out what the purpose of this person was.
"I think Brother Kuishun drank a lot last night, and he definitely doesn't know the news in the morning." "It is said that three pills discovered that their important pills or pills had been stolen this morning, and the losses were extremely heavy! Even in the True Children's Treasure Pavilion, a few more items were stolen. ”
"I heard from He Yun this morning that Brother Hades has a good relationship with the shopkeeper of Tong Guizong, so Brother Hades must know this matter very clearly." Shen Qingli took a sip of tea, deliberately smashed it and said, "But what does this have to do with us?" If you lose something, you go to the thief, but we are guests. ”
"Hehe, I also agree with Brother Kuishun's idea. But this morning, I heard that because the city lord was not there, the deputy city lord was worried that the matter would be big, and he had ordered all the guards to search one by one, and he had to give an explanation to these Dans. Otherwise......" Brother Kuishun can also understand that if the Dan wants to make Zhentong City unhappy, there are still many ways. ”RQ
